7. Now add all the vegetables and stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes , till they are cooked , yet crunchy.


8. Now add Turmeric powder, vangi bath masala powder and salt.


9. Now add 1.75 cups of water. My rava is little old stock. Hence i added slightly more water. If you have a fresh rava, for 1 cup rava, 1.5 cups of water is enough. Now, allow the water to comes to boil.


10. Now add the rava slowly in one hand, and keep stirring with other hand. You can see, the rava starts to absorb the water.
